| Summary/Abstract |
This paper critically examines the counterterrorism strategy of Pakistan, which it adopted after the 9/11 incident, by arguing that so far, it has proved ineffective and counter-productive in uprooting the terrorist network of Pakistan-based militant Jihadi and extremist groups that also have links with Al-Qaeda. In this respect, the paper, besides defining and assessing Pakistan’s counterterrorism strategy, also analyses various factors which have contributed to the inefficacy of the country’s counterterrorism strategy. In the concluding analysis, the paper emphasises upon the need for formulating an effective counterterrorism strategy of Pakistan.
